Hey Miss Magic - Yes, this happens. I tried to offer a nice story to your thread, but it just gets lost in the endless banter and knee-deep crud.....Don't be shy, there are plenty of good folks here, just ignore the riff-raff, if possible.

I saw that one, I was thinking of asking people who their favorite "dead" character was. I saw one guy who brought his cat to a show.

No way! That IS crazy. How could anybody convince themselves that THAT was a good idea??

Was it a black cat that rode on his shoulders? If so, I did too!

One other thing... It doesn't look like you've been advised about "thread hijacking" A classic example occurs with Brother Direwolf and yours truly early in this thread... They're generally not malicious... we just get carried away now and then. Again welcome!

Yes... I get blasted on here for asking questions all the time. Delete your post before they find out or you will get chatroom bullies condescending you from all directions of cyber space.

Bay Area BGP employees were VERY kind.

My favorite was a lady named Marie. She looked like Emo Phillips, if you know who that is, and I got to know her at Oakland, Shoreline and Warfield. But, it was when I was stranded in Sacto, Cal Expo, that I bumped into her. I told how I was left behind by my buddies and that I was pretty much broke. She gave me a 1/2 gallon of water, some trail mix and a newspaper to read while I waited for a ride. Something to get me throught that HOT and somewhat lonely day...

So, I can understand why others would have kind memories of those BGP folks too. :)

another mean PM? yours wasn't that bad last night - was normal i think.

granted i should have been in no way so complimentary - that was my fault - maybe i went a bit overboard in my choice of wording. have rethought that anyways
